Basic Operation
Other UPS Features (Rear Panel)
AC Receptacles: your UPS features 15-amp AC outlets, and select models
also feature 20-amp and 30-amp AC outlets. These output receptacles
provide your connected equipment with AC line power during normal
operation and battery power during blackouts and brownouts. The UPS
protects equipment connected to these receptacles against damaging
surges and line noise. If you have a serial or USB connection to your UPS,
15 amp/120V
you can remotely reboot connected equipment by turning the receptacles
NEMA 5-15R
OFF and ON using Tripp Lite's PowerAlert Software. Select models have their
receptacles divided into one or more load banks (labelled "LOAD 1," etc.)
which may be remotely switched OFF and ON using Tripp Lite UPS software
without interrupting power to equipment connected to the other outlets.
Select models feature special outlets (clearly labeled on the rear panel)
which provide surge-only (not battery backup) protection designed for laser
printers and other heavy-draw devices. Select models also feature outlets
20 amp/120V
labelled "UNSWITCHED", which may not be remotely switched off. See
NEMA 5-20R
software instructions for details.

to monitor a wide variety of AC line power and UPS operating conditions.

Support for more information. See "USB and RS-232 Serial
Communications" in the "Optional Installation" section for installation
instructions.
